Some people make summer buckets lists of things to do. Me? I’m making a Netflix summer bucket list for all the binging I plan on doing. HA!! But really though, what better way to pass the time while traveling (I LOVE the new download feature) or just staying up on nights I don’t work that watching a little Netflix? I also love to listen while I’m working on blog stuff so I definitely have shows I actually watch and then show I listen to while I work. Anyone else do that??
I’ve posted about my favorite shows to watch on Netflix pretty regularly and I think it’s only appropriate to update that list because this summer just may have the best Netflix lineup yet. There are so many shows either already out or coming out soon and so many movies I have to see that I feel like a new list is needed at this point. I even recently got rid of my cable service because I literally never watch live tv anymore. We will see how long this lasts…LOL!! So let’s get to it and see what my Netflix Summer Bucket list includes!!
ONE. Orange is the New Black. the new season came out in early June and I just finished it! Y’all!! I thought it went kind of slow at some points but then that last episode!! MAN!!! OITNB has completely mastered the cliffhanger and I already can’t wait to see what happened next season!! Have I mentioned on here that this show is the reason I got Netflix in the first place? Oh yes. Blame the obsession on Orange y’all. It’s the truth!!
TWO. Jane the Virgin. New episodes were released a couple of weeks ago and I finally just finished those this past weekend. This show is legit amazing!! I love all of the characters and it makes me laugh out loud for reals. I am only sort of embarrassed to say that my Dad was the one who told me I had to watch it and I did, reluctantly, and of course I freaking loved it!! Thanks Dad.
THREE. To the Bone. This is a Netflix Original movie that comes out July 14 and stars Lily Collins and Keanu Reeves. It’s about a girl struggling with an eating disorder and is interesting because I read an interview with Lily Collins a while ago and she mentioned how scary it was to film because she has suffered from an eating disorder in her past. The previews look good and I can’t wait to watch.
FOUR. Rogue One. For all you Star Wars fans out there (myself included) this movie will be on Netflix July 18!!! I actually saw this movie in theaters the day that Carrie Fisher died. Creepy but true.
FIVE. The Ranch. I haven’t actually seen this show yet but I have heard so many good things about it!! It’s been on my list for a while now and the new season just released so I feel like I should start watching it soon!!! Plus Ashton Kutcher. Need I say more??
SIX. Glow. Glow is a show all about a 1980’s female wresting league. The previews I have seen look so good and I bet it will be hilarious as well!! I can’t wait to watch!!
SEVEN. GirlBoss. Yes, this show has already been cancelled after only one season but I still LOVED it. That Sophia is ruthless but girlfriend gets what she wants. You should watch it just so we can talk about it. Ok??
Eight. Anne with an E. I love love loved this show!!! It was definitely like the book, which I loved when I was growing up but I have never seen the original show so I can’t compare it to that. That being said I think the cast was amazing and Netflix did a great job with this show!
Other shows I watch that have new episodes out are…Reign, The 100, Quantico and Grey’s Anatomy!!
Shows and that I listen to while working on this blog are….Hart of Dixie, Friends, Grey’s Anatomy, Gilmore Girls, Vampire Academy and Twilight. That doesn’t mean I don’t like these shows and movies, it just means that I have seen then so many times that I don’t need to pay attention to them like I would with new shows or things I haven’t seen.
Other older movies coming to Netflix in June and July that I will definitely be adding to my list are…Titanic, ET, Free Willy, The Mighty Ducks and 13 Going on 30!!
What shows or movies are on your Netflix Bucket List??
Dogvills says
I have heard of these shows, but I haven’t found the time to watch them. Hopefully this summer, I get to watch some of these shows.
Stacie @ Divine Lifestyle says
I just started watching Anne with an E, and it’s great. I’m so behind on everything else. Orange is the New Black is STILL on my to watch list from back when it first came out.
Jeni says
What a fun list! I have just started the new season of Baby Daddy, and I want to see the Anne with an E show as well since I love Anne of Green Gables. So much stuff to watch, so little time.
Heather says
I like Netflix, although we don’t have it currently. I’ll need to add it back again so I can watch Gilmore Girls. The kids took over my Netflix account and I can’t let that happen again! LOL!
Jenn says
Girl boss is cancelled?? I loved that show!! We have very similar tastes. I have all of those shows on my bucket list as well
Oyinkan Ogunleye says
Jane the Virgin is always a good watch! I have’nt watched it in so long, it would be great to catch up!
Victoria Heckstall says
Jane the Virgin is really one of my favorite! I already watched it on the television before. :) It’s so great and I really like the story.
Lisa Heath says
We watch most of these and LOVE them! Netflix is our guilty pleasure in all ways!
Jocelyn @ Hip Mama's Place says
SO many shows to look forward to this summer! I’ve been way behind OITNB! I think it’s about time I caught up with the episodes. I also would love to see the new shows they’ve added. Girls rule this season, it seems!
Emily says
Ok, I like this idea of a summer netflix bucket list! I saw the Anne of Green Gables and loved it! I have seen a few of these shows but there is some I have definitely missed out on
Kathy says
I have a few of these shows on my list as well. I do love Netflix! I don’t have cable either, so Netflix is what I rely on.
Jennifer G says
I have not seen many of these. I can’t wait to get started. Right now I am binge watching Shameless as so many people have recommended it. I REALLY love the Ranch, we are all caught up on it now though. Love the Cameo’s from the “That 70’s Show” cast. Just waiting for a few more to show up now.
Misty Nelson Dawn says
I heard about these shows and I’m so excited to watch these during summer break. I can’t wait to watch the Jane the Virgin
Diana Ajih says
Great list! Orange is the New Black is definitely on my must-watch list as well as Girl Boss. Netflix great list of shows and movies will keep me entertained all summer long.
Shannon Gurnee says
I love Orange is the New Black, but there are some shows on here that I haven’t seen before. Look like some good ones to start watching!
Beth Blakely says
Anne with an E is SO GOOD! I love the books and the 1985 Megan Follows version. The new version is just as magical! <3 I was pleasantly surprised.
Ashleigh @ Dash of Evans says
I just caught up on Jane the Virgin–agree, it’s so clever and funny! There is a new Standup show that is great too–quick 30 minute sets from some familiar faces. I need to watch OITNB…I’m on the last season still and it’s SO hard to not hear spoilers. We tried The Ranch, but I couldn’t get into it. Awesome list :) I’m expecting a little one any day now and I’m adding new shows to my list!
Ricci says
Congrats on your little on on the way!! I haven’t tried The Ranch yet but hopefully it will live up to its expectations!
